Appending many messages is not a send.

Answer Appending many messages is not a send. RFC 3502 describes IMAP MULTIAPPEND, a way for a client to add more than one message to a mailbox in one command. The document is RFC 3502, titled Internet Message Access Protocol (IMAP) - MULTIAPPEND Extension. The mail program is stuffing a mailbox. It is not walking a list and handing each person your letter. A count of messages added to a folder is a count of a write, and a write is not the rented letter.

The note that started this: RFC 3502, Internet Message Access Protocol (IMAP) - MULTIAPPEND Extension, RFC 3502.

Sellers like a big number next to the word delivered. An append can look like that number if nobody asks where the messages went. They went into a mailbox the client can see. If you are comparing best solo ad vendors, ask which report is a send to people and which report is a mailbox write. A vendor who cannot split those two is not describing the product yet.

That is a fact about mail software or about an old specification. It is not a solo ad price, a rank, or proof that a stranger opted in. A buyer still has to name the list, the sending domain, and the refund line on the order. MULTIAPPEND fills none of those blanks. A seller who opens with the command and never names the list is handing you a public document and calling it a broadcast. Read the document if you want. Pay only for the order.

What does RFC 3502 describe?

RFC 3502 describes IMAP MULTIAPPEND, a way for a client to add more than one message to a mailbox in one command. The document is RFC 3502, titled Internet Message Access Protocol (IMAP) - MULTIAPPEND Extension.

One command instead of many is a convenience for the mail program. The mailbox ends up holding more messages than it held before. Nothing in that convenience says a stranger asked for mail, and nothing in it says your offer left for a list. The messages might be copies, drafts, or filing. The specification does not turn the pile into a solo. A seller who shows the pile and calls it volume is selling the size of a folder.

Ask to see the letter a person on the list would read, and ask which domain sends it. If the only artifact is a log of messages added to a mailbox, you are looking at housekeeping. Housekeeping can be tidy and still be the wrong product. The refund line should say what happens when the report was an append and the order said a send. A careful seller names that difference before money moves. A buyer who skips the question pays for a folder getting heavier.

• The order says a send to a list, not an append.
• The seller can show the letter a person would read.
• The list, the sending domain, and the refund line are named.
• A count of messages added to a mailbox is not the result.

Is appending many messages a send?

No. Appending many messages is not a send. The client is adding messages to a mailbox. A solo ad is one letter to someone else's list, not a stack written into a folder.

Hold the word send up against the file. A send, in the buy you think you are making, leaves toward people who belong to a named list. An append stays in a mailbox the client is allowed to write. Both can involve a lot of messages. Volume is not the distinction. Direction is. If the pitch says the append was the campaign, the pitch has renamed a write.

If you have not paid, do not pay until the report matches the order. If you have paid and the proof is only that many messages were added to a mailbox, the refund line is the next sentence, not a debate about how busy the mail program looked. On the seller side, say append when you mean append. Say send when a letter went to the list. Mixing the words is how the argument starts.

Does an append prove the reader opted in?

No. That is a fact about mail software or about an old specification. It is not a solo ad price, a rank, or proof that a stranger opted in.

A mailbox write has no memory of a signup. Anyone with access to the mailbox can add messages there. The stack does not become an audience because it is large, and it does not become cleaner because the command was efficient. Ask who is on the list. Ask which domain sends. Ask what the refund line says when the proof of the job was an append, or when the list is not the list you named.

Judge the vendor by those answers. Notes on safe solo ads sellers stay with the list, the sending domain, and what happens when a mailbox write was sold as a send. Appending many messages is not that send. Pay only when the order says so in plain words. A command that fills a folder is not permission, and it is not the letter.
